I guess it’s convenient and probably would save lives by way of course early detection... But... what about going in for an interview and unbeknownst you get idd and samples get sent. Or your employer... oh so and so is coming on with an expensive disease which requires loads of time off to recover... There are implications that need to be adressed.

I'm not quite sure that level of concern is warranted. It is illegal to ask for a medical examination before getting hired and I imagine this would extend to that. Testing poop, even with a smart toilet, would be pretty cumbersome and a huge PR nightmare. It would be just as easy now to remove hair for covert DNA tests - but I don't think that has ever been an issue.

Simple, just have an OAuth login panel at the toilet to make sure your data gets assigned correctly.

Facial recognition? I don't want a touchscreen on my toilet.
